The results of this study show a hypothesis that plasma-derived exosomes from severe OSA patients promote pyroptosis and increased expression of inflammatory factors in vivo and in vitro, and lead to impaired cognitive function in mice, suggesting that OSA-EXOS can mediate CI through pyroptosis of hippocampal neurons. In addition, exosome cargo from OSA-EXOS showed a unique miRNAs profile compared to NC-EXOS, suggesting that plasma exosome associated miRNAs may reflect the differential profile of OSA related diseases, such as CI.
